Have you not been playing ladder? Like at all this past month?
Nothing goes over my head! My reflexes are too fast, I would catch it.
I’ll take my Baited Arrow with extra meat please.
Turn 7 to equip 2/3 weapon with spell dmg as Hunter. Ehhhh, I'm not sure about that...
Just wait for the other hunter cards :)
Awesome card and the weapon can push so much damage over 3 turns! One more burn spell for Hunter and the archetype starts becoming a very feasible option..
I have a very bad feeling that this is very broken. If there is something that can allow the hunter hero to get windfury like doom hammer, there are going to be nerfs all around. Then again, mind blast and Velen exist so it is possible.
Hunter is soooooo known for Windfury FailFish
The point was that if there is a possibility that a neutral card was made that gave your hero windfury you small minded rank 20 player.
Youre too "big minded"... A neutral that gives windfury to your hero? Even blizzard isnt that reckless. Gorehowl+upgrade for 18 dmg? Windfury super collider? Proccing necrium blade on the turn you play it?
I dont think so, son. But keep on belittling others with you vast mind...
All I'm saying is anything's possible and that a small mind wouldn't realize that. It makes logical sense.
This will only get better with time. Right now we don't have that many good burn/AoE spells, but if this is any indication then more are to come.
For anyone who says this is "too slow" I'll remind you of Rhok'delar and how wrong everyone was about that particular archetype...and that one didn't even come with a body.
I'm not trying to make a case for it without seeing it in action, but little additions like this could help the bomb-mech hunter build with things like Bomb Toss. I've had pretty decent success with the bomber build (by no means top tier, obviously), and something like this could help push some much needed late game damage, especially in an unknown meta where we can only build with standard cards, many being mech related stuff. Interested to see how it pans out, in any case.
I like how the 75% of the comments for any Hunter card reveal are about how much face damage it can do.
I know right? It used to be 95% of the comments were about going face. Progress.
I like the card, Vereesa as minion is small for 7 mana but the weapon is pretty good. I don't expect to see Vereesa deck with Zul'jin since in hunter all direct damage cards can target friendly characters, which makes them bad with Zul'jin (after rotation we will have Arcane Shot, Bomb Toss, Kill Command and Baited Arrow).
Also I wonder if we will get more AoE spells for hunter because currently the only real AoE is Explosive Shot which is not spectacular even with +2 spell damage... I don't see it yet, but maybe with more cards.
I wonder how much we will see this in the meta, but I feel that two or three good spells could put this on the map.
Acidic Swamp Ooze
is what they said about the entirety of K&C and look how that turned out
and? one legendary weapon played for all the time - Skull of the Man'ari(rogue infinit weapon and druid op weapon don't count).7 mana, only the most unlucky dude will not find ooze.
This is wrong. Six of the weapons were pretty good and saw play for a while. Let's go through all 9 classes.
Mage: Aluneth saw play in Burn/Tempo Mages. / Priest: That one was garbage. / Warlock: As you mentioned, Skull was OP. / Rogue: Kingsbane Rogue got nerfed, because of how annoying the weapon was in wild. / Druid: Saw play in Maly & Togwagle Druid. / Shaman: A meme, for sure. / Warrior: Recruit Warrior was like Tier3, I guess that counts for not viable. / Paladin: It was played in Even Paladin, even though it is a tech choice. / Hunter: Afaik Spell Hunter is okayish.
